Windows 10 – Not Detecting Your CD DVD Drive Potential Solution

Is your Microsoft Windows ten computer operating system not detecting your compact disk read only memory and or digital video disk drive? Amazingly enough Microsoft Corporation after decades still cannot design a computer operating system that can actually detect a compact disk read only memory and or digital video disk. Anyways, this potential solution might allow your Microsoft Windows ten computer to finally detect your optical drive(s).

You will need to have access to your Microsoft Windows ten administrator account and password. To open a command prompt with administrator rights in Microsoft Windows ten operating system, you can right click the Microsoft Windows ten start menu button in the lower left hand corner of your desktop screen.

Then you will want to choose command prompt with administrator rights if listed. If it is not listed, you can type in “command prompt” without quotes into a Microsoft Windows teb cortana search box. Now you will want to right click the command prompt icon and choose “Run as administrator” or choose this from a list of other options.

In a command line you will want to type this command verbatim:

reg.exe add “HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\atapi\Controller0” /f /v EnumDevice1 /t REG_DWORD /d 0x00000001

Also, you can copy and paste that command above that is bolded into your command prompt with administrator rights screen. Then you will want to hit your enter key. You should receive a “The operation completed successfully” message in your command prompt window screen.

If you did successfully receive the above message, then you can exit out of the command prompt window by typing in “exit” and then hit enter or close the command prompt window by clicking on the x in the upper right hand corner. Now you will want to restart Microsoft Windows ten operating system. Hopefully, now your compact disc read only memory or digitial video disc drive is detected successfully.

If you receive any error messages then you can make sure that you are running that a fore mentioned command with administrator rights. Also, you could search the error message you are receiving into a search engine similar to Bing or Google, in order to find some assistance.

0:00:13.950,0:00:19.410
how many operating systems have been

0:00:15.690,0:00:22.320
released in the previous decades that

0:00:19.410,0:00:26.689
can easily detect a cd/dvd drive that

0:00:22.320,0:00:29.880
Windows 10 has a problema with it I

0:00:26.689,0:00:31.769
ironically I found this article from

0:00:29.880,0:00:35.820
Microsoft that actually fixed my issue

0:00:31.769,0:00:39.000
and this was with a full version an

0:00:35.820,0:00:41.540
upgrade I was running Windows 7 detected

0:00:39.000,0:00:46.110
my a cd/dvd drive work just fine then I

0:00:41.540,0:00:48.239
ran the Windows 10 upgrade then when

0:00:46.110,0:00:52.530
that completed it would not detect my

0:00:48.239,0:00:55.530
cd/dvd drive correctly DVD CD drive in

0:00:52.530,0:01:00.800
Windows 10 does not recognize the cd/dvd

0:00:55.530,0:01:04.290
drive installed Windows 10 preview in

0:01:00.800,0:01:07.770
107 cd/dvd drive is working fine but in

0:01:04.290,0:01:10.890
Windows 10 can’t recognize it tried disk

0:01:07.770,0:01:13.200
management ran scan for new devices and

0:01:10.890,0:01:16.830
device manager that did not work here’s

0:01:13.200,0:01:17.400
the resolution solution you might give

0:01:16.830,0:01:19.350
this a try

0:01:17.400,0:01:21.180
run the command prompt as an

0:01:19.350,0:01:22.770
administrator so you would right click

0:01:21.180,0:01:28.530
the windows icon in the lower left

0:01:22.770,0:01:31.110
corner and then you will see a list and

0:01:28.530,0:01:35.689
you will see command prompt and then

0:01:31.110,0:01:38.520
admin select the admin and then say yes

0:01:35.689,0:01:41.210
then you copy and paste this command

0:01:38.520,0:01:44.100
which I will copy and paste for you

0:01:41.210,0:01:46.829
select and then copy and then I have an

0:01:44.100,0:01:51.689
administrator command prompt open just

0:01:46.829,0:01:53.670
select paste hit enter and then you want

0:01:51.689,0:01:56.610
to make sure that you see the operation

0:01:53.670,0:01:58.680
complete a successfully message and then

0:01:56.610,0:02:01.829
it will go back to a command prompt so

0:01:58.680,0:02:04.200
that worked then you want to reboot your

0:02:01.829,0:02:09.500
Windows 10 machine and it should detect

0:02:04.200,0:02:09.500
your DVD CD drive successfully now

0:02:11.489,0:02:17.349
for whatever reason when upgrading to

0:02:15.010,0:02:20.099
Windows 10 and I you I didn’t use a

0:02:17.349,0:02:23.080
preview version I used their full

0:02:20.099,0:02:26.220
upgrade version you’re running Windows 7

0:02:23.080,0:02:32.680
and then you get that little icon

0:02:26.220,0:02:35.380
annoyance perhaps begging you to upgrade

0:02:32.680,0:02:40.420
to Windows 10 which is now no longer

0:02:35.380,0:02:41.440
free and so I ran the upgrade it ran

0:02:40.420,0:02:46.900
successfully

0:02:41.440,0:02:48.310
but then my cd/dvd drive no bueno muy

0:02:46.900,0:02:50.620
mall no longer worked

0:02:48.310,0:02:53.069
